Hi, I traced down my problem with really slow man page views this: {{{ >PATH="/usr/bin:/foo" strace man bar |grep 'foo/share' }}} I am getting this: {{{ 13 39756 [main] man 6688 normalize_posix_path: src /foo/share/man16 39772 [main] man 6688 normalize_posix_path: /foo/share/man = normalize_posix_path (/foo/share/man) 13 39785 [main] man 6688 mount_info::conv_to_win32_path: conv_to_win32_path (/foo/share/man) 12 39810 [main] man 6688 mount_info::conv_to_win32_path: src_path /foo/share/man, dst C:\tools\cygwin\foo\share\man, flags 0x3000A, rc 0 16 39912 [main] man 6688 mount_info::conv_to_win32_path: conv_to_win32_path (/foo/share) 14 39942 [main] man 6688 mount_info::conv_to_win32_path: src_path /foo/share, dst C:\tools\cygwin\foo\share, flags 0x3000A, rc 0
}}}If my PATH is the real one this goes on forever, and generates some problems,like:
{{{ >time man bar No manual entry for bar real 0m23.650s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.108s hanging e.g. on20 2449004 [main] man 8124 mount_info::conv_to_win32_path: src_path //share/man, dst \\share\man, flags 0x4022, rc 0
}}} VS. {{{ >PATH=/usr/bin/ bash -c "time man bar" No manual entry for bar real 0m0.082s user 0m0.031s sys 0m0.045s }}}Any ideas why man does look for "share" in the whole path? Tbh I haven't looked at the man source code. Thx in advance!
BR Till PS: aliasing man with a limited PATH works for me...
